The prolonged visit of Herr Krupp to
Prince Bismarck at FREDERICKSBURG has
excited considerable surprise and COM
ment, and various causes have been
ascribed as explaining the gunmaker'S
purpose in holding conference with
the chancellor, none of which, however,
has come anywhere near the truth. 1t
was learned to-day that the object of
Herr Krupp's interview was to induce
the chancellor to assist him in collecting
a bill of S5,000.000, which the house of
Krupp has held against the Turkish
government for ordnance furnished at
various times to Turkey, until the prob
ability of its voluntary payment
has become exceedingly remote.
Whether the chancellor agreed to
turn the German foreign Office
into collection agency is not definitely
known, but it is understood that Herr
Krupp received promise that any
thing that could legitimately be done
toward inducing the sultan's govern
ment to liquidate its Indebtedness to the
firm that had supplied it with means of
protecting itself would be resorted to,
though what steps will be taken cannot
be cOnJectured.
GLADSTONE's FRIENDSHIP
for Sir Edward Walker, the Unionist
member for Hythe, excited some sur
prise among those who could not ac-
count for it, but it has no political sig
nificance whatsoever. The personal re-
latiOns of the two gentlemen have
always been friendly, and have
been especially so since the eX-
premier's advocacy at the last
session of the channel tunnel bill
which measure Sir Edward Watkin has
made his especial hobby. The entente
cordial established between the two
over the perennial idea of tunnel
under the English channel rendered it
the most natural thing in the world that
Mr.. Gladstone should become the guest
of Sir Edward when he should chance to
visit the latter's place of residence.
evolves no new theories in regard to
home rule, nor does it make his old
plans any palmer than they were be-
fore. The Tories will certainly de-
nounce him for his rather pronounced
support of certain acts of violence in
Ireland, but the Liberal enthusiasm
over his utteranceS is enormous, never
theleSS.
THE POLICE
redeemed in a measure to-day their
shortcomings of yesterday by promptly
clearing Trafalgar square and prevent
ing the repeated efforts of the mob to
reasSemble even in the vicinity of the
square. After great deal of hustling,
pushing, pulling, shouting and swear
ing the mob wandered about in de-
fan n6 nd OIL 1ncC Of
however, making its way toward CLYDE
Park, III spite of the different routes
taken. A large number of banners and
flags were displayed, many of them
inscribed with notices denoting the ex-
treme desperation of their bearers and
followers. One of the crowd carried a
red flag emblaZoned with gorgons' heads.
The bearer of this addressed the crowd,
declaring that the people must rebuild
London. The wOrkingmen, he said,
were living in pigsties, while the titled
idlerS lived in palaces. This utterance
had the effect of bring on all sides cries
of Burn London" s'Burn Out the Ar
istocrats," etc., to the evident satisfac-
ton of the speaker.
THE PRINCESSES
Louise and Maude, of Wales, who are
ill at Copenhagen, are afflicted with
German measles, a type of the disease
extremely contagious. but seldom fatal
in its results, though the victims usu-
ally suffer pain and Disagreement in a
greater degree than from the ordinary
type of measles. They are reported to
be approaching convalescence,ho however,
and the feeling of anxiety over their
condition entertained in royal circles
here is fast abating. The Prince of
Wales continues his hunting operations
danger to his daughters. Rt. Hon.
Alexander J. B. Beresford-Hope is in a
dying condition, and his death is merely
question of few hours.
